Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Great Doctor!

Extremely disappointed by his behavior!
This doctor is extremely condescending and arrogant. He makes fun of people's accents and laughs at them because of it. He is presumptuous and entitled. He calls people immature just for making a few jokes. He talks to his aids and the people around him as if he is superior. Quite frankly, he didn't do a good job on me and I'm still suffering the consequences. I'm beyond disappointed with what he did to me. If I could give him 0 stars, I would.

Dr. Troob is very experienced and has a very keen eye. My maxillofacial pain has been experienced for more than half a year without knowing the cause, but I was diagnosed the first time I saw him. He is very caring and responsible for his patients. I trust him a lot.
